so how is it that aaron mckinney assaulted four people, okay? one gay male, matthew shepard, and three straight men, and yet somehow the one instance got isolated as an anti-gay hate crime? in fact, the hispanic men one could easily say, you know, he was racist and attacked them because they were hispanic. what i look at in the book is the nature of meth-related violence, and there were other complicating factors. i'm not excusing in any way what aaron mckipny did. i just want -- mckinney did. i just want to say that there were many things going on that night. this was the culmination of a conflicted history that was there between aaron mckinney and matthew shepard. and, you know, some of the commentary that's come up recently has said, well, it could still be an anti-gay hate crime because if aaron mckinney was homophobic, he was bisexual, yes, it could have been a hate crime. well, the truth is that in the court case, there was not a hate crime in wyoming. the case built by the prosecution, these guys were not convicted of a height crime. the

eventually i got to know the drug dealers working with aaron mckinney. several of them were the same supplier. this was cumulative as i started to explore the drug world and then discovered obviously that matthew shepard also had been involved with crystal meth as a user. first when he was living in denver before he moved to laramie. he moved to laramie in the summer of 1998 and as i said the crime happened in october of 1998. i was interested in what was the history that was there and what i found, and i found this from quite a number of sources. i have 10 sources who have gone on the record about having witnessed some aspect of the relationship between matthew and aaron. some of it was socializing at parties. it was also -- there are several people who were present when there was a drug and money exchange between them and again none of this is to say in any way that this was not a -- it was a horribly violent -- grotesquely violent kind that occurred in laramie in october of 1998 but the story that was presented and that really was quickly mythologized

i was also curious about these allegations that aaron mckinney was bisexual. i began to investigate as a journalist, first for the new york times magazine i approached them with the story. the commission to me to write, and i worked on the story on and off for two years from 2002- 2002-2004. and the new york times eventually kill the story. the editor who commissioned it from me had left the magazine. he is gay and now runs new york magazine. and the editors who inherited the story from them were less enthusiastic. so the story was killed. at the same time i have been talking with abc news about doing a story that would come out at the same time of the bill would kill the story based on what had happened at the times magazine. the executive producer of abc news' 2020 who is still there is also a day. and he actually said, no, let's do it. at that time as i said, and to be the prosecutor extensively and had not interviewed other people in laramie. it had also been done, the only interviews that the two men convicted of the murder had given. eventually at the pr

>> well aaron's law has been introduced. it is a bipartisan bill, introduced by zoe lofgren and representative sensen brrvetion. proposals currently being considered by the house, we think there's strong support in the senate. there's a piece of aaron's law that was actually in a separate bill that was passed by the senate a couple of years ago by the senate judiciary committee. so the bill is i think fairly modest. it frankly doesn't go as far as i would like but it would make a huge step forward in terms of bringing the law into kind of what ordinary people would think ought to be illegal and not. and most importantly will really take the penalty scheme and make it a little less crazy. one of the problems that people have is that the law is really disproportionate in its penalties. >> you know i cannot help but think about the edward snowden disclosures and what that's taught us about the nsa and the kind of gathering there is. and i look at this sort of legislation and i wonder are we looking at the wrong side of the ledg

>> aaron is right. these are public lands. proposals facing minnesota are on superior national forrest. they are proposals very, very close within areas where the water drains into the wilderness, so when and if pollution happens, there is the risk that it will be enter the wilderness area. the public lands they are national forest lands, and national forests are managed a little bit differently than national parks, so there are multiple uses, and mining is one of those. but the public does get a chance and has an opportunity here to weigh in about how to care for those lands. aaron is 100% right that we all ought to have a part in this conversation. it is important that we weigh the costs and benefits just as mining companies weigh the costs and benefits when they are looking to develop an ore body. and if they decide those costs outweigh the benefits and leave town, they are not anti-job or anti-mining, they have made a calculation. minnesotians should have that same opportunity. >> when we come back -- let's talk a little b
